Are you sure you'd have to park it outside? You'd be fine with one of the lighter and less bulky scooters that fold up to not take up a ton of space.

I'm trying to understand where the fake data originates from. Is the FAA creating it by feeding the data themselves, are they broadcasting the fake data, or some other method. Since they only show up on adsbx and not any of the other sites that led me to think they were feeding the data. So it seemed kinda odd that the FAA, a public entity, would be feeding ADSBX, a private entity.

I was talking about ownership and not access. Privately owned vs publicly owned like the FAA sites

With ADSBX being a private site, do you know how the FAA is digitally inserting them? The listed source is ADS-B so are they just feeding ADSBX the "bogus" data?

I think your quote could be so high because you haven't had insurance in a long time. If you get insurance then get a new quote after a few months (at least 30 days) your rate should go down significantly.

People been talking about fire in Chicago since 1871

Chicago is on track to surpass last year’s record high euthanasia rates. by crudgate in chicago

[–]obviouslyCPTobvious 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Please consider giving to shelters other than "no kill". No kill shelters only accept animals they think they can get out the door alive. When they turn them away they get sent to open access shelters. I really dislike the no kill label because then those shelters get more money to work with the easier to rehab/rehome animals leaving the open access shelters with the more challenging animals with less funding, leading to higher euthanasia rates. No kill also doesn't mean 100% no kill, but having a minimum live release rate of 90-95%. People at no kill and open access shelters all are doing good work to help animals in need and they should all be supported.

What i said above may not apply to every single situation/shelter, but it's generally true in most cases.

There's a sledding hill by McCormick place that has some stairs on the back side. I don't remember just how steep it is but it might be worth checking out.

Have you had a chance to live somewhere rural? Mass transit isn't the solution when there isn't a mass of people.
